Thanks for the reply. I guess people like 17lands must be doing this manually. :/

My theory is the scribes were hardcore urbanists and it’s just a bunch of ramblings about why chariots are bad and we need more walkable neighborhoods in the Roman empire.

There you go again with the tang bath. Sad!

You are the only good thing about this app. Please never change.

Translation: we are not going to build accordances for toxic behavior even if the elites who live that shit call is a vacuous and boring product. We know who our audience is and it’s not them.

“…their financial success all too often convinces them that they’re uniquely brilliant, able to instantly master any subject, without any need…to understand the issues” is the obvious explanation for bad tech thoughtleader takes, but the real puzzle is how to explain the NYT’s. 😀

She’s bootlegging Hello Kitty and shit. There are no rules.

Tired: it’s not rocket science.

The larger problem is that once you have multiple clients iterating fast on any features is impossible and you’re competing against products that don’t have this issue.

Hundreds of millions of people use Twitter to get news, talk to friends, meme, etc. Calling these users right-wing is *insane*.

Twitter is a mainstream (if smaller) network, and these right-wing networks built for right-wing users never were.

But media does what makes money, and dire narratives make people click, get angry, and share.

It’ll be interesting to see if this accelerates AI adoption in the space. Past writers strikes led to things like reality TV to route around these folks. Maybe people don’t need bespoke hand-crafted dialogue.

To be fair, I’d rather have this elderly inquisitive set making rules than Lina Khan, who is much younger and has zero idea how any of this works, but high levels of confidence she knows what to do to make the market function better.
